So much going on around town this May Long Weekend!  I love this weekend, it is my ‘official’ welcome to Summer weekend!  Do all Canadians feel that way?  Growing up, it was always our first camping weekend, and I have many fond memories of it!  Enjoy the Rodeo or the Childrens Festival next week, it’s all Family FUN!
